I don't understand how they let the teams get away with doing this. They make teams list injury reports for a reason, and filling them with garbage makes them useless.

[Biggie]

You can't be serious. This goes beyond even Belichick.

NAPOLIAN APPARENTLY DOESN'T LIKE THE 'SKINS, EITHER

When the Colts listed 21 players as questionable on Wednesday (nearly 40 percent of the roster), we just assumed it was another example of Napolian being Napolian.

But thanks to a reader who has a better recollection of the events than we do, it appears to us that Colts president Bill Polian is looking for ways to stick it to the team from the NFC East that Indy plays only once every four years.

The first indignity? With the Colts bent over by Peyton Manning in free agency in 2004, the Redskins swooped in and swiped linebacker Marcus Washington. "Unfortunately, Marcus had to make a decision before we were able to. When he signed with the Redskins," Polian said at the time, "it broke my heart."

Fast forward to 2006. Receiver Reggie Wayne is poised to become an unrestricted free agent. There are rumors that the Redskins will make a run at him. Though the Colts could have franchised Wayne, Dan Snyder's "I get what I want" mindset might have prompted him to sacrifice a couple of first-round picks in order to sign Wayne away.

Thus, the Colts arguably were forced to overpay Wayne in order to keep the 'Skins from getting a crack at him. (And we wouldn't be shocked to learn that Wayne's agent, David Dunn, was fully aware of the package that the Redskins would have offer if Wayne had hit the market.)

In the end, however, the Colts had to make good on the declaration made by Napolian in early February: "I can say one thing about Reggie Wayne, and it's he won't be a Redskin."

So with Sunday being the first meeting between the two teams since 2002 (which Washington won, 26-21), it's Polian's first chance to kick the Redskins in the loincloths, and the first arrow (in our opinion) was an injury report deliberately manipulated to prevent the opponents from figuring out who's really hurt, and who isn't.

Which PROVES his hate for our team - Joe Gibbs slugged his Buffalo Bills in the SB

Yeah, the Wash Post figured it was some form of gamesmanship as well. IMO you prepare for the opponents best players no matter what.

If this is the case, there should -- and usually is -- sort sort of league punishment.

[Skins57]

DJ that is freakin funny man that has to be one of the best sigs I have ever seen

[Skins57]

wasn't it Denver that got in trouble one year for injury reports and went nuts after they got in trouble

[redskin_rich]

They won't do it again next week, after they get a call from the league. Just like in pro wrestling, where you can use an illegal chokehold for under a five count, teams in the NFL can fudge procedure for one week, without penalization.
Polian really has a chapped backside with the Skins. It seems there is a rumor that he was forced to overpay Reggie Wayne, after his agent quoted an offer from the Skins.

Stokely & Sanders out (http://www.colts.com/sub.cfm?page=article7&news_id=4172)

The Colts, after sustaining a rash of injuries in preseason and after having at least 10-to-15 players on the injury report much of the season, are expected to be without only two roster players on Sunday, Dungy said Friday.

Those players:

Wide receiver Brandon Stokley and safety Bob Sanders.

The rest of the roster likely will be available, Dungy said.

“Healthwise, maybe Stokley and Sanders are the two guys who probable won’t play,” Dungy said Friday

[CowboyKilla]

Toss the reports out and win it on the field. We can do this.
